The last human position - notoriously quiet
132 x 50 cm
"Last Human Standing" and "Brotherhood" ... my goal was to create something new and fresh ... also trying to delve into my Cosmic Chaotic approach in these two styles. ...more new universal visions, as well as new styles and effects .
#Last Man Standing (LMS) was born in 2004, when he painted it in an old factory in Lisbon, and quickly became one of the icons of Portuguese street art around the world with a very strong meaning and symbolism.
"Fraternity" emerged in 2016 when I first combined multiple "LMS" in the same painting... I really liked it and started using it in my street art works. To me they represent Us... all people.
